Spoiled animals????

To our friends in the midwest....we are hoping you are surviving the snowstorm...
and are warm and safe indoors!
- Did We Put Our Summer Clothes Away Too Soon?
Yesterday had us thinking twice about the decision to put our warm weather clothesaway for the year! With temperatures approaching 70 degrees,the goats were wishing they could take off their thick wooly winter coats. Hang in there, kids...Old Man Winter...
- Ahhh...the Luxury Of A Rainy Day!
Yesterday was the perfect day to catch up on indoor activities.The laundry and the ironing are caught up.New bracelets are made. Wedding corsages are finished.My craft/sewing room no longer looks as though a tornado struck. While I was indoors tasking...
- No Shortage Of Winter Coats Around Here
After several days of what felt like a heatwave(high temperatures actually reached the 20's)... we have plummeted back down to almost zero again. Thank you, very much. I truly have just not had enough cold yet this winter.(kidding) Our snow seems...

- Quiet Winter Scenes
Being from Africa, Guineas are not so fond of snow and ice, and so they spend most of these days seeking shelter on the Dutch doors to the horse stalls. This was the view from the top of Bee Haven Lane yesterday after the snow ended. Off to the far right...

Winter Rains
The first day of Winter is tomorrow.
Christmas is in 4 days...
and we are in the midst of the dreariest weather!
Rainy, cloudy, gray....bleak....
not at all what we hope for during the Christmas Season!
I have to admit, though, this weather has given me the opportunity to bake and sew and
finish wrapping.
For the animals...
the rain slows life down considerably.
Most of them seem content to stay inside, munch hay,
and look out at the grayness.
Even the Nigerians stay in their houses at suppertime.
It's always amazing to see two of these plump goats in one house.
We used to provide room service for the goats,
however having to crawl to the back of each of their houses
to retrieve their bowl the next morning
was enough to convince us to discontinue this service.
The piggies stay in the barn when it rains....
spending the day eating and napping in a soft bed of hay beneath their heat lamp.
Even our new barn kitty, Sophia has been outfitted with a soft bed
and her own head lamp.
